Fiven Silicon Carbide Production Dust Control: Lillesand Furnace House & Processing Areas

Phased Dust Control Installation Transforms Visibility & Safety at World's Leading Silicon Carbide Facility

Challenge:

Fiven, the world’s leading producer of Silicon Carbide grains and powders serving Defence, Automotive, Electronics, Aerospace, and other critical industries, faced severe dust and smoke issues in their production facility. The atmosphere in the crushing, screening, and furnace house areas was dense with airborne particles from Silicon Carbide production and refining processes, creating extremely poor visibility and hazardous working conditions for operatives.

Location Lillesand, Norway
Customer Fiven (World's Leading Silicon Carbide Producer)
Sector Silicon Carbide Manufacturing & Advanced Materials Production

The Mist-air Solution:

Mist-air implemented a phased installation approach, beginning in 2018 with the crushing and screening area, then expanding in 2020 to cover the entire furnace house. The comprehensive dust suppression system dramatically reduces airborne dust generated from Silicon Carbide production and refining methods, transforming the working environment with clear visibility and significantly improved air quality.
